Located near Naxos and Ios, on the southern side of the Cyclades, this island amazes visitors with the natural beauty, the traditional architecture and the fabulous beaches.

Discover, nourish and absorb the incredible wisdom and knowledge that your intuition and body are ready to provide you through this incredible Grace In Greece, 7 day retreat on the beautiful island of Amorgos. 

Defined “the jewel of Amorgos” by its guests, Aegialis Hotel and Spa has well deserved the title thanks to its breathtaking views over the crystal clear bay and the amenity of its location. Standing proudly on the top of a rocky hill, immersed in a green oasis of unspoiled nature, it responds to the guests’ need for rest, peace and tranquility. The warm welcome from the owners and personnel, the high standard of service and the comfort of the facilities all contribute to offering a unique experience of the local authentic life on a Greek island.

Aegialis hotel & spa is the only 5 star hotel in Amorgos Island as a cozy retreat built in the traditional Cycladic architectural style and encircled by two of the most beautiful sandy beaches of the island. The Hotel houses a small world of blue and white buildings set into the hillside, so that all the traditionally-furnished and fully-equipped rooms and suites benefit from the stunning views over the bay and the surrounding islands. ALL rooms offer amazing views of the Aegean sea and the Aegiali beach. The unique Amorgian hospitality in combination with the Cycladic beauty promises you memories you will always treasure.

What will my day look like?

Each day will begin with an optional morning yoga class (based on demand and availability) and/or a gourmet breakfast buffet followed by group classes devoted to intuition and body wisdom exercises, meditations, techniques, discussions and journalling of outcomes and next action steps for you to continually embody grace.  There will be music, guided movement exercises and one on one channelled guidance from Arlene as well as profound group messages and modes of healing and action steps to further pursue in your goal of remembering all that is important to YOU.

Throughout the week, we’ll build progressively on intuitive and body wisdom as well as anatomical, alignment and energetic themes.  Lunch will be provided and we will continue with the retreat after lunch for a short while.

More free time!

Every day  here will be ample free time so that you can relax in one of the peaceful places around the hotel or you may wish to explore the island.  The hotel offers many terraces and quiet places for relaxation as the beautiful pool and spa. 

During the evening, you can book any extra activities that the hotel offers, dine at the hotel's restaurant or book a shuttle with the hotel for a few Euros each way to visit the closest village for dinner options.  The closest village is a short 15 minute walk.

This retreat will allow you to unplug from your stresses and responsibilities, from electronics and newsfeeds, and remember what is really important to you. You will get the time you need for introspection so that you can reset and come home to yourself. You’ll go deeper into your intuitive practices and create new approaches for yourself once you leave the island. You will be awe-inspired by experiencing one of the most beautiful places on earth. You’ll also be part of an open and inclusive community of fellow spiritual seekers.

Optional Yoga Practices, Boat Tender Adventures and Guided Island Tours.  Stay tuned for updates from your organizer!

These can be arranged with the Concierge at the front desk during your free time or free day!  

Arlene will assist you with this as well!

Please read carefully,  This is a hotel on a remote island.  Thus, polices and usual practices you might find common in North America or other parts of Europe don't necessarily apply.  Travel insurance purchased of your own accord is always strongly recommended for this  worthwhile trip.

1.  All deposits are required to reserve your spot on this small group retreat.  This deposit is final and NON-refundable.   The promo codes are only valid to the dates provided above.

NEW (for non US Citizens) 

By booking with this site, if you are a US, Canadian, UK or European citizen, you have the option of paying directing from your bank  checking account which has no transaction fee attached.

If you are booking with your credit card, please note the credit card transaction fees which will appear on booking, for which  the organizer does not take responsibility. 

Cancellation Policy

Please note that there will be no refunds or discounts for arriving late, leaving early, flight cancellations, travel delays or illness. 

If you cancel your participation in the retreat for any reason, the cancellation policy will apply, with no exceptions.

I wish I could compensate you all for unforeseen circumstances, but I have incurred expenses that once paid I cannot get back. I strongly encourage you to purchase travel insurance if you have any concerns.

Your initial deposit to reserve your spot is NONREFUNDABLE however, it will go towards a portion of the retreat cost. 

Cancellation ~ initiated by participant

Before September 20 2025, you may cancel your trip and you will only lose the initial non refundable deposit.

Important, if you are cancelling and have a roommate- this puts the roommate in the position of finding another to maintain her double occupancy fees (single costs more). If another roommate can be found, you are responsible for receiving payment from that person directly.

 If no substitute can be found and you have made payments as per the payment plan, a partial refund (less the initial deposit) cannot be guaranteed unless there is another registrant to take your place. 

*These dates and policies are as per the Resort- .The organizer has no control over the policies as per laws applied in Greece.

In general, all payments made as per the payment plan are non-refundable going forward for any reason.  The nature of the hotel on this island does not permit refunds once payments are made.  They also only work with the organizer for payments and will not accept you calling to book directly.  

Cancellation ~ Initiated by retreat leader

While the organizer does not anticipate canceling this retreat, IF I must cancel a retreat for any reason, you may request to have your payment transferred to another retreat, or you may request a refund of your payment to me, constituting a full settlement. You will only be refunded what you have paid thus far.

Arlene Moshe is not responsible for your expenses incurred in preparation for any cancelled retreat, such as airline tickets, loss of work, and/or other costs associated with preparing your trip. Again, if you have any concerns, please purchase travel insurance. 

Substitution of a participant-  The organizer is not responsible for finding you a replacement roommate if you cancel: Thus,

Should you wish to have someone replace your spot because you need to cancel, YOU, 

1.  are solely responsible to continue to pay for the trip in We Travel, while getting re-imbursed personally by your substitute.

2. must provide Arlene, the organizer, with the person's name and contact whom is replacing you and Arlene will advise from there and see if the names may be changed in the We Travel platform.  

3. To reiterate, you must make your own arrangements to be re-imbursed by the person replacing you and you must honour the payments owed for the trip directly.  Should payments be late by you, the original purchaser, this booking (for your replacement) will be forfeited and offered up to someone on the wait list.

4.  Given the above, it is  strongly recommended to obtain travel insurance.  Past participants said they were able to access this easily with a phone call to the insurance company of their choice.  Also, given the current atmosphere of airports everywhere, it would be prudent to consider this expense.

Other fees

Please see what the trip includes and what it does not in the Pricing Section Below.

How to Get to Amorgos

In the past, most guests have me at the port of Santorini, on the first day of the retreat start date, and we travel to Amorgos together.  However, you may decide to do some sight seeing or come from another island in Greece.  Here are the things to know.

Most Popular Options

Option 1:

Fly to Athens a few days before the retreat and take in the sights.

Book a flight from Athens to Santorini the day before your ferry to Amorgos and spend the night in Santorini.  Have your hotel arrange a taxi take you to the Thira, Santorini port. Take the SuperJet Ferry with Arlene to the island of Amorgos. (90 minute ferry)

Option 2: 

Fly to Santorini directly or via Athens and spend a few days in Santorini.  Kamari Beach, Fira or Oia are wonderful places to stay.  Have hotel arrange a taxi to bring you to the port on the day of your ferry ride and take the SuperJet ferry with with Arlene to the island of Amorgos. (90 minute ferry)

Other options:

Fly to Mykonos and spend a few days there.  Check ferry schedule as there may not be daily ferries to Katapola or Aegiali, Amorgos or they  may not be direct.  You may arrive at either port in Amorgos, the organizer will collect this information from you and organize pick up. 

Fly to Athens and take the overnight ferry from Piraeus port to Amorgos.  This ferry is about 8-9 hours and usually overnight. You will either arrive at the Katapola or Aegiali port in Amorgos.  Either option is fine and your organizer will let the hotel know so you may be picked up and brought to the hotel.

Please allow approximately 45 minutes to an hour to get to the port of Piraeus as it is not close to the airport or the city of Athens.

Note: 

There are several ferry companies and apps that allow you to book ferries.  The organizer recommends Ferryhopper as you can download the app to generate your e-tickets and track your ferries.

##Recommended- purchase the Flexi option on any flights or ferries that allow you to change flight departures etc.

The Cyclades islands are windy and sometimes though rarely, ferries or flights can be cancelled.  With the flexi option, there is a re-assurance that you will not have to pay more for a new departure.

3.  Our arrival times will be relayed to the hotel staff whom will then arrange to pick us up from the ports on Amorgos and bring you to the hotel.  If you are departing from Santorini, the arrival port in Amorgos is Katapola.

The event will start on the evening of the September 14th and finish on the evening of the 20th, allowing you to make travel plans for the following day.  Again, all your departure plans will be share with the hotel so your transfer to the appropriate port will be noted.

Going Home After the Retreat

If you are flying directly home after the retreat,  I recommend giving yourself one night's stay either in Santorini or Athens in order to not miss connecting flights.

Example:

Leave Amorgos Island on September 21st at approximately 130 pm

Arrive in Santorini approximately 3 pm.   

Stay in Santorini or have a pre-arranged taxi take you to the airport for a flight back to Athens that you book later the same day. 

It is not recommended to book a flight from Santorini to Athens within 1 hour of your ferry arriving to the port of Thira, Santorini.  Ferries can sometimes be delayed.  I recommend the 6 pm flights or later back to Athens.

Spend one night in Athens by the airport for next day departure.  (Staying in Athens is a 45 minute drive from airport and may not be worth it depending on when your home flight is).

Holiday Inn or Tina's apartments are very affordable and close to the airport,  offering free shuttle service to the airport

A great website to use is Welcome Pick Ups Athens.  You can modify your transfer and leave notes for them.   Welcome Pick Ups Santorini

Please let the organizer know if you'd like a personalized video call to discuss your travel and arrangement plans individually to make sure you are stress free!

The average minimum temperature (usually the minimum temperature is noted during the night) in Amorgos in September is 19.9°C (67.82°F). September is a dry month with an average of 6mm (0.2in) rain. It rains on average a total of 1 days. The average maximum daytime temperature lies around 24.7°C (76.46°F).  The weather is still beautiful in September but avoids the high tourist season.  This makes such a difference to the overall experience of Amorgos!

So what to wear in September? For visitors traveling to Amorgos we recommend wearing layers. So maybe a skirt, t-shirt, shorts for during the day and jeans and a warm jacket for some days and evenings. You will get a suggested packing list closer to the event!  

Suggested Medications/Lotions to bring:

1. Acetaminophen/Ibuprofin

2. Allergy medication (for reactions to mosquito bites if applicable, mosquitos at night can be an issue if out on the town like anywhere in the world)

3. Anti-itch cream

4. Sun screen lotion
